Honnou's SUPER BATTLE OPERA TOUGEKI 2011 Viewing Party
Shining Aquas replied to Honnou's topic in Archive
I'm guessing they probably didn't leave any information on your windshield or anything. Fucking scum of the earth. I'd be willing to help you out with rides to Norcal events depending on where you live in relation to my house and the next one. -
NORCAL INSTALL! [Main Information and Ranbat Update Thread]
Shining Aquas replied to Chun's topic in Archive
What kind of job is it? Also, are we skipping October NCI, because the date for that is creeping up pretty fast and no one has talked about it. Like literally, we have about 12 days and 30 minutes until Saturday, October 1st. -

I'm in the same position as Ernest, completely fried. Next time though for sure, I wasn't even aware they were livestreaming SBO now. EDIT: You know what, fuck it. I'm dead tired, but SBO won't be put on hold. -
Arcana Heart 3 New Thread: Gameplay, Netplay, Etc.

Wow, Fiona mirrors are garbage. And Catherine is still dumb. No one ever goes for Grand Divide combo, makes me sad. -

Anji: 1) Find a gap, try to H Fuujin. 2a) Dude, move is crap. That counter hit better be a sandwich cause you're gonna eat it. 2b) Blocked? Cool, I've got 5 followup options, all of which are unsafe. No followup is the most unsafe, but they won't do anything cause they are always expecting a followup. 2c) This is America. 25% tension, get free damage. 3) Lose to over half the cast in matchups anyways. 4) Go back to Arcana Heart -

I don't know man, I've been playing Fiona since Arcana Heart 1. I guess I could try picking up Clarice or Natsume, but Fiona is so much fun. Maybe she'll be good next game*. If Chun starts riding around on a brand new "moe"-ped, we'll know what's up. Don't know if it will do anything, but I was gonna talk to Chun about giving away some sad-life Vanillaware games from my stash at the next NCI. Nothing crazy, I was gonna donate and hopefully raffle off a copy of Odin Sphere to the GG bracket, GrimGrimoire to the MB bracket, and Muramasa: The Demon Blade to the AH bracket. I don't expect much out of that, just a little something to say thanks to the scene for being awesome and putting up with my scrubby ass, and maybe encourage a few more people to enter the lesser-entered tournies (BB, I love you guys but you've got all the support you need already). Oh right something about shoutouts. Shit. Um, shoutouts to me for going 0-2 in 4/5 events I entered. Supporting the scene ONLY financially. Shoutouts to Catherine for taking up like 2.5 hours of time, and for more than quintupling our viewer count. Shoutouts to Catherine for apparently wrecking AH when I decided to call it a night early on account of work in the morning. Shoutouts to Millia for winning in one hit. Shoutouts to SuperBettyWhite, the Magic Man. May or may not have existed. Shoutouts to that black guy on the mike, way to never run out of oxygen...ever. Shoutouts to Gamecenter for hosting, that place is excellent and I envy your Gwendolyn Statue like nobody else. Shoutouts to Skullgirls solo characters for feeling absurdly strong. Shoutouts to the air, way to smell like ass half the time. Shoutouts to Chun for putting on another tournament, but we seriously need to get started earlier next time. Shoutouts to waiting 2 hours in-between AH tourney matches, that was fucking pro. You guys need to not all get dinner at the same fucking time. Shoutouts to Dacidbro for not making top 8 in BB, what the shit man. Shoutouts to 2GB for jumping at least one rank on the tier list. Shoutouts to only black people playing Platinum, it's like some kinda psycho world or something. Shoutouts to Qwerty quitting GG for KoF13 apparently. Shoutouts to Qwerty for (as far as I could tell) not playing a single match of KoF13 the whole time he was there. Also, see you back on GG in like 4 months. That's all I got. Stay classy. -

Nobody remembers that one bad Fiona player that tries really hard but plays a terrible character. Oh wait, it's me. Shoutouts later. School now. -
NORCAL INSTALL! [Main Information and Ranbat Update Thread]
Shining Aquas replied to Chun's topic in Archive
It's some kind of block puzzle game where you have to climb to the top or something. Also something about being naked. The details escape me. That's all good though. Finals will be me vs Ernest, the only two people that know how to play Dr. Mario. -

I'm entering the Catherine tournament but not only have I never played the game, I haven't even seen it yet. How fucked am I? -

Why the fuck would you ever block that? Just Counter Assault and be lazy. Then be blown up. -

Fuck, do people in Norcal even wake up before 10 AM? That is, assuming a job isn't involved. Also, I'm gonna try to acquire a copy of Kirby's Air Ride before NCI happens. -

I'm not getting a facebook account just to tell you that Pokemon Puzzle League is the only answer aside from Puyo Puyo 15th Anniversary edition (Either of which I can and will provide). -

Oh yeah, cause random tournies with random pairings isn't just friggin dumb. I can see it now: 2v2 Mario Power Tennis 2v2 Spawn (DC) 3v3 Marvel 3, but each person only gets one character per team and they need to switch off whenever their character comes in. Paper Boy Score Attack Challenge NorCal vs SoCal: NFL Blitz 6v6 Atomic Bomberman -
The next one is NCI. The one after that is probably the next NCI. Just do what I do: find your favorite character that's low on the tier list (and don't care), enter all the tournies but hardly ever practice at home cause you don't have a lagless MB setup (obviously), ask questions to things you don't know, and play the game long enough before people ask if you were actually stubborn enough to stick with a shit character. It's not actually trolling the MB scene, it's just trying to play a game at a point where it's way too late to REALLY learn it (see: MvC2). While the whole MB scene gives you advice and ideas, they will also kind of give you that scowl of "where were you when we were supporting this", but you just need to shrug it off and show them your serious face as often as you can. Alternatively, pick H-Shiki or H-Sion and just blow people up for free. Where do you get three? I thought Current Code was only 2 major revisions (one for re-balance and console characters, the second for Powerd Ciel and not retarded Archetype Earth). Also, have they still not announced any plans to transfer to consoles?

Shoutouts to me getting a job and now not knowing whether I can make it to NCI: Tournament Edition. -
By my logic, I say Qwerty plays BB in the sense that he has a main and knows what all the buttons do. I have a really low mental bar for people who "play" the game. Being good at the game is a completely different thing. Also Ky is one of the easiest characters in GG, but he isn't terrifically good so you still need to have a reasonable amount of skill to win with him.
